Re: How to get related username in view?

This is basic stuff.

var $actsAs = array('Containable');

var $recursive = -1;

Ideally do this in app_model so that your whole app uses the Contain behaviour.

Your Category find is now:

$categories = $this->find(

'all',

array(

'conditions' => array('Category.category_id' => $id),

'Contain' => array(

'Post' => array(

'User' => array(

'User.id',

'User.name'

)

)

)

)

);

Since you are showing "posts" on the view maybe it would be better to show that page from posts controller..
It would be easier to get posts category users in a single query..

I have a categories view which shows related posts that belong to the

category.  On the posts table there is a user_id which relates to a

username on the users table.  I would like to display the username for

each post on the category view, but when I put $post['User']

['username'] into the ctp file I get an error message: "undefined

index: User"
